[QUOTE="keithcandler, post: 1774536, member: 3728"] When I was shooting benchrest, I learned to will let mine sit for 7 Days and never touch it. When I pull it apart, I de-grease the bedding of release compound, then put another skim coat of bedding on top of the first, applied with my finger only. When finished, I check the bedding by attaching a magnetic base to the barrel, then have the indicator touch the underside of the fore arm. The indicator measures 0.0001. Now, I tighten and loosen the front guard screw, if the needle on the indicator moves, then the action has some stress on it. That second coat is the cat's meow. I am very superstitious about taking a rifle out of the bedding too quickly. [/QUOTE]
